    I’m using HD foam on my current build for a commission. It is really great. It’s easy to sand and form. Seriously it’s a good product.

      is it more expensive in complaisance with a normal foam?

    • @SilverBack_Props
      @SilverBack_Props 4 роки тому

      Piro Man it’s not much more expensive than say Amazon. It’s really worth it for the amount of options to choose from plus the ability to choose bundle packs of varied thicknesses. I did have to pay for shipping. So far the foam has been really great. www.sksprops.com/hdfoam

    I have been a fan of SKS Props for quite some time and their foam is absolutely the best! Steve Smith is such an amazing artist and the stuff he creates is always fantastic. A little daunting because he is so good at his craft, it's sometimes hard to come close. He and Scott Pope make an incredible team. So happy they got a partnership with Blick Art to help the cosplay community discover their incredible foam products.

    So my wife and I have always wanted to get into some cosplay, and this looks like it might be a nice low barrier to start with. All we have is knives and glue. No work bench, heat guns, laser cutters or vacuum formers. But this looks like we could start small with what we have.

    That armor is awesome, but they did something that a lot of people do and it makes it look less real. I don't know why when there's horns on a costume, people paint them to almost match the color of the metal/armor parts because they shouldn't be that color. They should be painted more of an off-white ivory to beige color to make them stand out and look more real.

      micah fuller in person they look much more white. The camera white balance took a lot of it away. Also, it was built in 10 days from concept to finish. Trust me, we would have loved to put way more into it! (That’s me in the armor).

    at the end there where the cosplayer in the armour is talking about is experiences of running into people at cons and not taking costume damage reminds me of pax aus in my sister of battle costume where i'd have people run into me or i'd accidentally bump into them and then would immediately check they were okay partly because the armour took no damage

    So, I'm currently working on a cosplay, where one of the conditions was that everything was to be made out of metal.
    I wanted it to *be heavy* and actually have that element of immersion. BUT! On the cosplay I'm working on, it has horns...
    horns are hard enough with regular materials but with metal I don't see it working out well, if at all, so I've essentially given up on making the horns out of metal, and instead making a metal cone-like shape, and then using this clay foam stuff to give it all the details and more organic feel. It will save me hours and seems like it would be actually fun (when compared to the agonizing pain that I've done trying to re-create life-like horns with metal... it did not look bad, but it was far from pretty).
